Milk Chocolate Pudding

in Diana's Recipe Book

Comments: A thick and delicious chocolate pudding, a comfort food for those times when you crave a real chocolate treat. It's that that smooth and creamy pudding we all love and remember from our childhood.

Instructions: Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt in a 2-quart heavy saucepan, then gradually whisk in milk and cream. Bring to a boil over moderately high heat, whisking constantly, then boil, whisking, 2 minutes. (Mixture will be thick.) Remove from heat. Whisk in chocolate and vanilla until smooth.

Transfer to a bowl and chill pudding, its surface covered with wax paper (to prevent a skin from forming), until cold, at least 2 hours.

Note: Pudding can be chilled, covered with plastic wrap after 2 hours, up to 3 days.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Reviewer: bambiRating:Review:This was delicious. I increased the sugar to 3 tbsp. and used vanilla sugar. It tastes best only after it has been thoroughly chilled.
